09/2011 – 07/2013: Research Associate I, Technical Development Mr. Ellingson was responsible for development of new methods, improving current methods, and development and transfer of client methods to their respective groups within NCFS. He served as a resource for scientific background in a variety of different analytical techniques and disciplines, and also served as a resource to identify and resolve issues that arose within those areas. He served as the main resource for all Ion Chromatography (IC) methods and development. He continued to be involved in scientific associations, and presented and published new analytical advancements he developed. 04/2009 – 08/2011: Research Assistant III, Nutritional Chemistry and Food Safety In addition to Research Assistant II responsibilities below, Mr. Ellingson continued responsibilities as IC leader for the department. He also took on responsibility as a technical resource for client inquiries regarding analysis of functional fibers and capabilities for future work on the IC systems. He developed IC methods that eliminated the need for older assays run by Gas Chromatography (GC) and Liquid Chromatography (LC) equipment, and was a technical resource for others in the lab. 07/2008 – 03/2009: Research Assistant II, Food and Drug Analysis Mr. Ellingson was responsible for all IC assays, systems, and maintenance. He was responsible for multiple Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) studies run by IC. He was also involved in assay development for both High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and IC assays. He was highly skilled in the use of all standard laboratory equipment, HPLC/IC systems, and GLP documentation, and was proficient in the LabWare Information Management System (NIMS) software. 04/2007 – 06/2008: Research Assistant I, Food and Drug Analysis Mr. Ellingson was responsible for multiple assays in compliance with Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), applicable methods, and regulatory agency guidelines. Mr. Ellingson used the Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS), the LIMS Access Tool (LAT), and Empower applications. He was proficient in multiple HPLC systems and helped troubleshoot issues and implement assays. He was highly skilled in the use of all standard laboratory equipment, and maintained well-documented laboratory records. 09/2004 – 12/2007: Master’s Thesis, University of Wisconsin – La Crosse, La Crosse, WI Mr. Ellingson completed his Master Thesis, “Meiotic Protein Expression and Interactions of Yeast Cell Cycle Gene CDC7 ”.

09/2005 – 12/2006: Teaching Assistant, University of Wisconsin – La Crosse, La Crosse, WI Mr. Ellingson was an introductory Biology lab teacher.

05/2004 – 08/2004: 3M Engineering Assistant, Menomonie, WI Mr. Ellingson created new standard operating procedures manual for a new product line, and utilized statistics to troubleshoot issues on existing product lines.
